Ivy thrives over a wide range of conditions; and is an excellent plant choice inside the house and outdoors.
|
The best known Hedera is English ivy, an evergreen that is often used as a groundcover and trained on walls, fences, posts, trellises, and topiary. Ivy adds line, texture, and color to visually soften structural elements and add pattern to a landscape design. Ivies are also used indoor or outdoor in window boxes, urns and other elevated planters where the vines cascade from the containers.
Tolerant to a wide range of light conditions, in warmer zones, due to possible heat stress, plant ivies in partial to full shaded for best results. The vine can be bent down and covered with soil to encourage additional root development. Water thoroughly, but infrequently.
Use a modest amount of fertilizer, high in nitrogen, for good green growth. Indoors, feed actively growing ivies monthly with any foliage houseplant fertilizer, according to the manufacturer's directions. Do not use fertilizer when plants stop growing due to heat of summer, or when temperatures are cool.
